The kids scribbled on a plastic outdoor item and I'm amazed the permanent
marker hasn't been removed by the alcohol nor by the gasoline soaked rag.

What's a good solvent to remove permanent marker on outdoor plastic?

The problem is that though it looks so smooth, uPVC is actually very
porous. The ink has got right into the plastic.
As someone else has said, acetone may do it but be careful, it
dissolves lots of things & may ruin the finish.
One crafty trick if all else fails is to rub some paint of a similar
colour into the plastic with a rag.
I would give your kids water based pens in future! :-)
